CURLNMBS.OptionHTTPAuth as Integer
Type | Topic | Plugin | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | iOS | Targets |
property | CURL | MBS CURL Plugin | 9.8 | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | Desktop, Console & Web |
Pass an integer as parameter, which is set to a bitmask, to tell libCURL what authentication method(s) you want it to use. The available bits are listed below. If more than one bit is set, libCURL will first query the site to see what authentication methods it supports and then pick the best one you allow it to use. For some methods, this will induce an extra network round-trip. Set the actual name and password with the UserPassword option. (Added in 7.10.6)
kAuthBASIC = 1
HTTP Basic authentication. This is the default choice, and the only method that is in wide-spread use and supported virtually everywhere. This is sending the user name and password over the network in plain text, easily captured by others.
kAuthDIGEST = 2
HTTP Digest authentication. Digest authentication is defined in RFC2617 and is a more secure way to do authentication over public networks than the regular old-fashioned Basic method.
kAuthGSSNEGOTIATE = 4
HTTP GSS-Negotiate authentication. The GSS-Negotiate (also known as plain "Negotiate") method was designed by Microsoft and is used in their web applications. It is primarily meant as a support for Kerberos5 authentication but may be also used along with another authentication methods. For more information see IETF draft draft-brezak-spnego-http-04.txt.
You need to build libCURL with a suitable GSS-API library for this to work.
kAuthNTLM = 8
HTTP NTLM authentication. A proprietary protocol invented and used by Microsoft. It uses a challenge-response and hash concept similar to Digest, to prevent the password from being eavesdropped.
You need to build libCURL with OpenSSL support for this option to work, or build libCURL on Windows.
kAuthANY = &hFFFFFFFF
This is a convenience macro that sets all bits and thus makes libCURL pick any it finds suitable. libCURL will automatically select the one it finds most secure.
kAuthANYSAFE = &hFFFFFFFE
This is a convenience macro that sets all bits except Basic and thus makes libCURL pick any it finds suitable. libCURL will automatically select the one it finds most secure.
The Lasterror property is set. 0 for success.
You can set this value and later you can read it, but you cannot read the default value.

property | CURL | MBS CURL Plugin | 9.8 | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | Desktop, Console & Web |
If set to zero, content decoding will be disabled. If set to 1 it is enabled. Note however that libCURL has no default content decoding but requires you to use OptionEncoding for that. (added in 7.16.2)
(Read and Write property)
See also HTTP_CONTENT_DECODING option in CURL manual.
CURLNMBS.OptionHTTPProxyTunnel as Boolean
Type | Topic | Plugin | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | iOS | Targets |
property | CURL | MBS CURL Plugin | 9.8 | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | Desktop, Console & Web |
There is a big difference between using a proxy and to tunnel through it. If you don't know what this means, you probably don't want this tunneling option.

CURLNMBS.OptionHTTPVersion as Integer
Type | Topic | Plugin | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | iOS | Targets |
property | CURL | MBS CURL Plugin | 9.8 | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | Desktop, Console & Web |
They force libCURL to use the specific HTTP versions. This is not sensible to do unless you have a good reason.
kHTTP_VERSION_NONE = 0
We don't care about what version the library uses. libCURL will use whatever it thinks fit.
kHTTP_VERSION_1_0 = 1
Enforce HTTP 1.0 requests.
kHTTP_VERSION_1_1 = 2
Enforce HTTP 1.1 requests.

CURLNMBS.OptionIssuerCert as String
Type | Topic | Plugin | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | iOS | Targets |
property | CURL | MBS CURL Plugin | 10.0 | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | Desktop, Console & Web |
If the option is set, an additional check against the peer certificate is performed to verify the issuer is indeed the one associated with the certificate provided by the option. This additional check is useful in multi-level PKI where one needs to enforce that the peer certificate is from a specific branch of the tree.
This option makes sense only when used in combination with the OptionSSLVerifyPeer option. Otherwise, the result of the check is not considered as failure.
A specific error code (CURLE_SSL_ISSUER_ERROR) is defined with the option, which is returned if the setup of the SSL/TLS session has failed due to a mismatch with the issuer of peer certificate (OptionSSLVerifyPeer has to be set too for the check to fail). (Added in 7.19.0)
Starting with version 18.0 the plugin will always use UTF-8 encoding for file path on Linux and macOS. For macOS we also do the unicode character normalization for file names for you.

Type | Topic | Plugin | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | iOS | Targets |
property | CURL | MBS CURL Plugin | 12.4 | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | Desktop, Console & Web |
This optional parameter allows co-operating agents in a trusted environment to communicate the authentication of individual messages and should only be used by the application program, using libCURL, if the application is itself a mail server acting in such an environment. If the application is operating as such and the AUTH address is not known or is invalid, then an empty string should be used for this parameter.
Unlike OptionMailFrom and SetOptionMailRecipients, the address should not be specified within a pair of angled brackets (<>). However, if an empty string is used then a pair of brackets will be sent by libCURL as required by RFC 2554.
(Read and Write property)

CURLNMBS.OptionMaxConnects as Integer
Type | Topic | Plugin | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | iOS | Targets |
property | CURL | MBS CURL Plugin | 9.8 | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | Desktop, Console & Web |
The set amount will be the maximum amount of simultaneously open connections that libCURL may cache. Default is 5, and there isn't much point in changing this value unless you are perfectly aware of how this work and changes libCURL's behaviour. This concerns connection using any of the protocols that support persistent connections.
When reaching the maximum limit, CURL closes the oldest one in the cache to prevent the number of open connections to increase.
If you already have performed transfers with this CURL handle, setting a smaller MAXCONNECTS than before may cause open connections to get closed unnecessarily.
The Lasterror property is set. 0 for success.
You can set this value and later you can read it, but you cannot read the default value.
(Read and Write property)

CURLNMBS.OptionMaxFileSize as Int64
Type | Topic | Plugin | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | iOS | Targets |
property | CURL | MBS CURL Plugin | 9.8 | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | Desktop, Console & Web |
If the file requested is larger than this value, the transfer will not start and kError_FILESIZE_EXCEEDED will be returned.
The file size is not always known prior to download, and for such files this option has no effect even if the file transfer ends up being larger than this given limit. This concerns both FTP and HTTP transfers.
The Lasterror property is set. 0 for success.
You can set this value and later you can read it, but you cannot read the default value.

CURLNMBS.OptionMaxLifeTimeConnection as Integer
Type | Topic | Plugin | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | iOS | Targets |
property | CURL | MBS CURL Plugin | 22.4 | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | Desktop, Console & Web |
Pass a number as parameter containing maxlifetime - the maximum time in seconds, since the creation of the connection, that you allow an existing connection to have to be considered for reuse for this request.
libcurl features a connection cache that holds previously used connections. When a new request is to be done, it will consider any connection that matches for reuse. The MaxLifeTimeConnection limit prevents libcurl from trying too old connections for reuse. This can be used for client-side load balancing. If a connection is found in the cache that is older than this set maxlifetime, it will instead be closed once any in-progress transfers complete.
If set to 0, this behavior is disabled: all connections are eligible for reuse.

Type | Topic | Plugin | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | iOS | Targets |
property | CURL | MBS CURL Plugin | 9.8 | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | Desktop, Console & Web |
If that many redirections have been followed, the next redirect will cause an error (kError_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS). This option only makes sense if the CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION is used at the same time. Added in 7.15.1: Setting the limit to 0 will make libCURL refuse any redirect. Set it to -1 for an infinite number of redirects (which is the default)
The Lasterror property is set. 0 for success.
You can set this value and later you can read it, but you cannot read the default value.

Type | Topic | Plugin | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | iOS | Targets |
property | CURL | MBS CURL Plugin | 22.4 | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | Desktop, Console & Web |
Pass a number that holds a bitmask of CURLMIMEOPT constants. Each bit is a Boolean flag used while encoding a MIME tree or multipart form data.
Available bits are:
CURLMIMEOPT_FORMESCAPE = 1
Tells libcurl to escape multipart form field and file names using the backslash-escaping algorithm rather than percent-encoding (HTTP only).
Backslash-escaping consists in preceding backslashes and double quotes with a backslash. Percent encoding maps all occurrences of double quote, carriage return and line feed to %22, %0D and %0A respectively.
Before version 7.81.0, percent-encoding was never applied.
HTTP browsers used to do backslash-escaping in the past but have over time transitioned to use percent-encoding. This option allows to address server-side applications that have not yet have been converted.
As an example, consider field or file name strange\name"kind. When the containing multipart form is sent, this is normally transmitted as strange\name%22kind. When this option is set, it is sent as strange\\name\"kind.

CURLNMBS.OptionNetRC as Integer
Type | Topic | Plugin | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | iOS | Targets |
property | CURL | MBS CURL Plugin | 9.8 | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | Desktop, Console & Web |
This parameter controls the preference of libCURL between using user names and passwords from your ~/.netrc file, relative to user names and passwords in the URL supplied with OptionURL.
libCURL uses a user name (and supplied or prompted password) supplied with OptionUsername and OptionPassword in preference to any of the options controlled by this parameter.
An integer, set to one of the values described below.
kNETRC_OPTIONAL = 1
The use of your ~/.netrc file is optional, and information in the URL is to be preferred. The file will be scanned with the host and user name (to find the password only) or with the host only, to find the first user name and password after that machine, which ever information is not specified in the URL.
Undefined values of the option will have this effect.
kNETRC_IGNORED = 0
The library will ignore the file and use only the information in the URL.
This is the default.
kNETRC_REQUIRED = 2
This value tells the library that use of the file is required, to ignore the information in the URL, and to search the file with the host only.
Only machine name, user name and password are taken into account (init macros and similar things aren't supported).
libCURL does not verify that the file has the correct properties set (as the standard Unix ftp client does). It should only be readable by user.
The Lasterror property is set. 0 for success.
You can set this value and later you can read it, but you cannot read the default value.
